It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Sounds great. Retail only though, which means less choice but probably higher quality.

Hopefully, it's a big rebate. Getting $400 off a $3,000 ebike wouldn't be great. $900 off a cargo bike worries me.

Ideally, I'd like to see bikes that are in the $1,800 range online be reduced to like...$200 for low income families. Help people get off cars for most city trips.
